Irish fighter Conor McGregor returned to the octagon for the first time in five years at UFC 329 in Las Vegas on July 12, but suffered a TKO loss in less than two minutes. The two-time former world champion faced off against Max Holloway, a former featherweight champion, in a rematch of their fight from 13 years prior. McGregor's last fight was a trilogy bout against Dustin Poirier in 2021, which ended with a broken leg and a long layoff from competition. In this comeback fight, McGregor suffered a right knee injury from the first round and was unable to continue fighting, resulting in a TKO loss at 1 minute 6 seconds.

Actress Ton Hom Sakunthala Tienpairoj has released an honest review of her five-month mouth taping weight loss experience, sharing candid details about the challenges she faced. She explained that she stopped the mouth taping at the third month after five months of treatment, and decided to share her experience as educational information.

During the third month, Ton Hom experienced frequent hunger, intense cravings for sweets, and struggled with appetite control—eating without feeling full. She noted that her metabolism seemed to shut down, which frustrated her, though she continued eating despite these issues. After five months, she lost five kilograms, but has since gained back two kilograms, which she considers normal.

Ton Hom emphasized that the mouth taping was not solely responsible for the weight loss. "It wasn't just the mouth tape," she explained. "I was weight training consistently throughout those five months. It's about building your own metabolism. The mouth tape just helped me stop eating, but you have to help yourself with the entire routine."

She revealed that a doctor recommended five lifestyle adjustments: controlling food intake, exercising, sleeping properly, avoiding alcohol, and managing stress. Ton Hom managed to follow almost all of them except diet control, particularly during her menstrual cycle when cravings were uncontrollable. She emphasized that the mouth tape served as a supplement, not a standalone solution.

In the first two weeks alone, she lost four kilograms—a dramatic change she'd never experienced before. Upon detailed body composition analysis, she discovered that two of those kilograms were muscle loss, meaning only two kilograms were fat loss. This motivated her to maintain consistent weight training, never skipping a single week during the entire five-month period.

Ton Hom stressed the importance of medical supervision, noting that stopping the treatment wasn't a personal choice but a doctor's decision. She also warned that a two-kilogram rebound after stopping is normal and expected.

In the 2026 World Cup quarterfinal on July 12, 2025, at Kansas City Stadium in the United States, Argentina played Switzerland. Argentina had a strong start, scoring first with a 1-0 lead from a corner kick in the 10th minute when Lionel Messi assisted Alexis Mac Allister's goal. After taking the lead, Argentina adopted a defensive approach focused on solidity, while Switzerland controlled the ball more effectively. In the 67th minute of the second half, Dan Ndoyi broke through and scored to equalize for Switzerland at 1-1. Switzerland's situation deteriorated when Breel Embolo, already carrying a yellow card, attempted to dive for a foul. After VAR review, the referee issued Embolo a second yellow card, resulting in a red card and his dismissal from the field. Despite Argentina's near-total possession and attacking pressure in the remaining time, they failed to capitalize on their numerical advantage, and the match finished 1-1 after 90 minutes, requiring extra time. In the extra period, Argentina, with more players, pressed heavily, and in the 112th minute, Julián Álvarez fired a stunning long-range shot to give Argentina a 2-1 lead.

At 12:45 a.m. on July 12, 2569, Deputy Superintendent Sirinthorn Darunigorn of Lopburi City Police received a report of a vehicle that had veered off the road and plunged into the Chainat-Pa Sak Canal along the canal road between Bridge 8 and Bridge 9 in Moo 3, Pa Thorn Subdistrict, Lopburi. Rescue volunteers and divers were dispatched to investigate. At the dark scene, they found skid marks in the grass leading into the canal, but could not initially locate the vehicle. Search and rescue operations began at 3:30 a.m., eventually discovering the car submerged at approximately 10 meters depth in strong currents. The vehicle remained upright with a cracked right window. After planning the operation, rescue teams were able to secure the vehicle with cables by 4:40 a.m. to prevent it from drifting downstream. By 5:35 a.m., the vehicle was successfully retrieved.

The vehicle was identified as a black Ford Everest with Chachoengsao license plate number กล 5293. Inside were the bodies of Nattaporn Pantong, 54, and Thanyabhoorn Jabbprang, 50. Witnesses sitting nearby fishing around midnight reported hearing a vehicle splash into the water and seeing taillights gradually disappear underwater, prompting them to alert police. Local residents indicated they had seen the vehicle circulating in Lopburi and surrounding areas, though they were uncertain whether it was a commercial vehicle. The two bodies underwent preliminary examination by the hospital physician before being transferred to the Institute of Forensic Medicine under the Justice Ministry for further autopsy to determine the exact cause of death.
